The president of the National Assembly (AN), Jorge Rodríguez, proposed the creation of new laws to safeguard peace and life, as part of the legislative agenda that must accompany the People in this phase of reconstruction and reconciliation of the country.

During the First National Meeting of the Secretariat for Parliamentary Affairs of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), Rodríguez stressed that the country is at peace, despite external threats and attempts at polarization.

In this regard, he stressed that stability is an achievement of the People and that institutions have a duty to defend it: “Venezuela must exist and will exist forever.”

Regarding the Amnesty law, he reiterated that the country needs a deep process of forgiveness and reconciliation. He recalled the words of Commander Hugo Chávez on April 13, 2002 — “I apologize for the mistakes made and I forgive my captors” — and affirmed that this spirit must guide the current debate. “We have to ask for forgiveness and we have to forgive. I confirm: the most difficult thing is to forgive,” he said.

He assured that the amnesty law must include compensation mechanisms for victims and asked the Spanish Government to hand over the person responsible for the murder of Orlando Figuera.

He invited deputies to take to the streets to debate the law, listen to the victims and collect proposals for the second parliamentary discussion.

“Our people don't need representatives; they need support and channeling their voices.” He reiterated that the main task is to listen and work in the territory: “Less platform, more street, more neighborhood, more neighborhood, more ears.”

Finally, he stressed the importance of the duty to protect peace, sovereignty and life of the country, and that this national meeting institutes.
